-1. If XRI is to be included, it should be done the way that it's
intended. One possible solution that would address this problem as well
as the unfinished XRI specification is to split out Yadis and XRI
discovery out from the OpenID Authentication spec and into separate
documents. That way, they could wait until the XRI specs are done and
the OpenID spec will be shorter and easier to understand.
